Who looks after your information
Polish Roots Passport is run by Karolina Skowron, a sole trader based in the United Kingdom. She is the controller of your personal data.
Business address: 18 Dean Close, Weston, Lincolnshire PE12 6HG, United Kingdom. Email: hello@polishrootspassport.com. Not registered for VAT.
What I collect
- Your name and contact details, when you email me.
- Information about your family that you choose to share, such as names, dates and places of birth, marriages and naturalisation.
- Copies of documents you send me, and records I obtain for you with your consent.
The 2-minute check on this site runs only in your browser. Your answers are not sent to me or stored unless you choose to email them.
Why I use it
- To answer your enquiry and give you a free check (steps you ask for before a contract).
- To provide the report or service you buy (performance of a contract).
- To keep records of my work and payments (legal obligation and legitimate interests).
Who I share it with
Only who the work needs, and only for your case: Polish offices and archives, the UK Ministry of Defence, UK record offices, and sworn translators. Some of them are in Poland, in the European Union, where UK law allows personal data to be sent. I never sell your data or use it for advertising.
How long I keep it
- Enquiries that do not lead to work: 12 months.
- Client files: 6 years after your case ends, for legal and tax reasons.
Your rights
You can ask for a copy of your data, ask me to correct or delete it, or object to how I use it. Email hello@polishrootspassport.com. If you are unhappy with my answer, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.
